Title: Fake Community Statistics
For: vBulletin forum software version 3.6.0 beta 1
By: Floris Fiedeldij Dop & Huanga & Colin F
Version: 0.10 (beta)
What does this do?
After importing this product you will have additional options in the Administrator Control Panel below the 'Fake Community Statistics Options' section. This plugin gives you the ability to
cheat the stats on forumhome (and a few other locations) by increasing the real value with a false value. The goal of this plugin is to helps new communities boost their activity by pretending they are bigger and more active; provoking visitors to register and participate to generate real activity (after which the admin can stop using this plugin)
Example:
Total registered members: 5
Added amount: 100
Forumhome now shows instead of 5:
Total registered members: 105
Of course, if a new member registeres it will be 106.

Does this come with phrases?
Yes .. but the product import will take care of these, no worries.
Does this come with templates or require me to modify my templates?
No, no new templates are required. Original values are overwritten.
Yes, two template modifications are required if you wish to show 'x members chosen not to be displayed' on memberlist.php and add fake online users to the online users list.
(see install instructions below)
Does this create additional queries?
Nope, this will not overload your server, and no sql queries are run.
Does this run on vBulletin 2.x or 3.0.x?
No.
Does this run on vBulletin 3.5.0 - 3.5.1, 3.5.2, 3.5.3 and 3.5.4?
I don't see why not. But
download the 3.5 stable release please!
Does this run on vBulletin 3.6.x?
Yes, but very beta! The basics work and the tweaks will have to be looked at, the options in the admincp that don't work for me right now are tagged as such.
Does this work with third party plugins like vBAdvanced, etc?
No, we don't support third party plugins right now, sorry! Stop asking LOL
